A new organ donor law has passed both the state Senate and Assembly. The measure, called Lauren's Law, would require people to check off whether they want to be an organ donor when filling out their drivers license application. They would have to check "Yes" or "Skip this question."

Lauren's Law is named for Lauren Shields, a little girl whose life was saved by a heart transplant. Organ donation experts say forcing people to make a decision, as wording like this does, increases donation rates. The law failed in the Assembly last year. The wording in that version was stronger: "Yes" or "No. Not at this time."
